About Event:

The 2nd International Symposium on Geomechanics and Applications for Sustainable Development focuses on advanced numerical techniques that are required to obtain reliable predictions and can help to develop good practices for sustainable development in the field of geomechanics. Some major themes covered but not limited to this symposium are, computational geomechanics, mitigation of surface subsidence due to extraction of underground fluids and best practices in hydraulic fracturing for unconventional hydrocarbon production. Co-chaired by Elias Aifantis from the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. This symposium will be held as part of the 2020 and 2021 Sustainable Industrial Processing Summit SIPS, an annual event that is deeply science-focused and industrial engineering-oriented, organized by the not-for-profit corporation FLOGEN Stars Outreach https:www.flogen.org, which is dedicated to achieving sustainability through science and technology. It incorporates summit plenary lectures from well-known speakers that address the link between scientific and engineering domains in the pursuit of sustainable development, as well as specific science and engineering symposia that feature technical presentations with the same goals in mind. We have confirmed until now the participation of the following 9 Nobel Laureates: M. Stanley Whittingham, Didier Queloz, Dan Shechtman, Sir Konstantin Novoselov, Aaron Ciechanover, Avram Hershko, Kurt Wuthrich, Ferid Murad, and Sir Richard J. Roberts.
